Sohee Han: Rosa Parks

Sohee Han writes: Losing act of rights due to the color skin is unfair and should not be placed. However, the segregation between whites and blacks remained fairly long in our history. Black people had to give up their rights for white people and even the laws supported this segregation. For example, black people had to give up their seats to whites in the bus. Not because white people pay more for the bus seats, but because they are white and the law said to do so. Rosa Parks is the one who recognizes as the first black person who refused to give up her seat. Since nobody refused to give up their seats before, her action put people in shock. Then, why did she not give up her seat? Was her action was planned before she get on the bus? There are many controversies on this subject and I found one interesting reason: she did not give up her seat because she was too tired from her long work on the following website: http://www.grandtimes.com/rosa.html. Also, there is description about her after story.
